Bonsoir
Voici la correction de cet exercice et un grand merci pour votre large participation.
1-Ce qui me tracassait, c'était que je ne retrouvais pas mon passeport.
(Ce qui=What.), sujet.
What est sujet de was, il annonce quelque chose qui suit dans la 2ème proposition. Il n'a pas d'antécédent.
What worried/bothered me, was (that) I couldn't find my passport.
2-Tout ce que nous mangions provenait de boîtes de conserves. (Petit piège dans l’exercice).
(Tout ce que =Everything/All (that), that peut-être omis lorsqu’il est complément.
Jamais : All what.
Everything/All (that) we ate came from tins (of food).
3-Mon voisin joue du violon à 4 heures du matin, ce qui m'agace terriblement.
(Ce qui=Which), complément. Which résume la situation énoncée dans la 1ère proposition. Celle-ci constitue l’antécédent de which.
My neighbour plays THE violin at 4 o’clock in the morning, which annoys me terribly/ terribly gets on my nerves.
4-J'ai oublié ce dont vous m'avez parlé.
(Ce dont=What)
I have forgotten what you told me.
5-Ce que vous allez apprendre vous étonnera.
(Ceque=what)
What you are going to learn will amaze/surprise/astonish you.
6-Nous avons ri, ce qui l'a rendu furieux.
(Ce qui= which), complément.
We laughed, which made him furious/cross.
7-Ce qui l'a vexé, c'est que nous avons ri.
(Ce qui=what), sujet.
What made him upset/what upset/irritated/offended him...is that we laughed.
8-Ils nous ont permis de visiter leur maison, ce dont nous les avons remerciés.
(Ce dont=which), complément.
They allowed us to visit their house, which we thanked them for.
9-Il fait tout ce qui lui plait et ne se soucie pas de ce qu'en pensent ses parents.
He does whatever/everything/all (that) he likes and doesn’t care about what his parents think about it. (what=ce que)
10-Il s'est excusé très poliment, ce que nous avons tous apprécié.
(Ce que=which)
He apologized very politely, which we all were grateful for/which we all liked, appreciated.
11-Ce dont j'ai besoin, c'est un bon dictionnaire.
(Ce dont=what)
What I need is a good dictionnary. (« is « et non « it’s » car le pronom it ne s’emlpoie pas quand le sujet du verbe est une proposition commençant par “what”.
12-Ce que j'ai préféré, ce sont les clowns à la fin du spectacle.
(Ce que=what)
What I liked, enjoyed best/preferred WERE the clowns at the end of the show.
"Were" et non pas “was” car le verbe qui suit « what » peut s’accorder en genre et en nombre avec le nom qui suit. Donc « were » s’accorde avec « the clowns ».
(pas de pronom personnel devant le verbe “were”).voir 11
Voilà, n'hésitez pas à poser des questions. A bientôt.

Bonjour,
Pour la phrase 4, je dirais plutôt I have forgotten what you told me about, car I have forgotten what you told me serait mieux traduit par "J'ai oublié ce que vous m'avez dit"
Pour la dernière phrase, j'ajouterais "the most" à like et enjoy pour qu'ils aient vraiment le même sens que prefer.
L'exercice était très intéressant pour what et which !

Bonjour,
Très juste nihonchan pour tes 2 remarques. J'avais oublié "best" après like et enjoy dans la phrase 12. "the most" est parfait aussi. "Tell about", phrase 4 est aussi correct. Thanks.
